Welcome to the swim lesson info page! All lessons are for paid members of Fairlawn Swim and Tennis only and not available for guests or public use.
Sign up to receive last-minute cancellation notices (due to inclement weather) here.
We have maximum teacher/student ratios for our lessons. Therefore, registration for any one session is NOT transferable to a different session. Additionally, if you miss a day in your registered session, you are NOT permitted to make it up in a later session.
We offer two types of swim lessons for our members:
Private (Option #1 below)– We’ve reached maximum capacity for this summer- Group (Option #2 below)
Please note that registration for group lessons closes 24 hours before the first class of the session starts. All registrations for group lessons must be completed online through your member portal account.
Option #1– Private swim lessons to be scheduled based on your availability.
We have reached our maximum capacity for private lessons for this summer.
All levels, skills, and ages are offered with one-on-one instruction. Upon request for a private lesson, our manager will connect you with a lifeguard instructor who will contact you to schedule your lesson.
Each lesson is per household.
One child/person is $20 per 30-minute lesson and two children/people (similar skills) is $30 per 30-minute lesson.
The instructor will advise you on how to pay him/her directly.
Our levels are explained at the bottom of this page.
